If you'...Sundberg, hadn't seen that name in years. If you're a Jays fan the mention of his name is depressing. 1985 playoffs vs KC.....<BR/><BR/>Canseco. Most dismissed him when he went public with his steroids story because he has the reputation - no doubt deserved - of being a buffoon. But just because he's a buffoon doesn't mean that he doesn't know a whole lot about steroids in MLB. Being a buffoon doesn't mean your dishonest either. <BR/><BR/>I think the most interesting development on this front recently was the PA filing a grievance on Guillen's behalf. Suspensions with no positive test, no conviction....The PA - other than advising the current players to tell Mitchell to shove it - have been pretty silent. If the arbitrator rules in favor of Guillen this will get really interesting.Eric Tomshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00632341548970196518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9131289420618991795.post-55383735650754472142007-12-12T08:32:00.000-05:002007-12-12T08:32:00.000-05:00While I honestly believe Mitchell was operating on...While I honestly believe Mitchell was operating on the complete "up and up", the PERCEPTION of conflicts of interest will undermine this report. He's a director of the RedSox. He's part of MLB. If you read Howard Bryant's article (http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=3142651) on ESPN, you'll come away shaking your head about the efficacy of this report.<BR/><BR/>Buster Olney mentioned today that there have been 65 or so names outted so far in some degree. That means only 10-15 more names, at max, will come out. If they only are middling utility infielders or fringe starters, then the credibility of this report is totally shot.<BR/><BR/>At the end of the day, so what. Not a question, just a big "so what".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9131289420618991795.post-37679847863682772622007-12-12T07:52:00.000-05:002007-12-12T07:52:00.000-05:00How about everydone just admits defeat on this sub...How about everydone just admits defeat on this subject. The players did it, the owners knew it.<BR/><BR/>Declare amnesty, everyone is forgiven, the record book stands (even though I'm not happy about it), and they start new from today with the policy now in place.<BR/><BR/>MLB and the players will be able to admit wrong doing, no major punishments, and the game starts with a clean slate next year.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Nah, it will never happen.
